Suppose you hear a clap of thunder 16.2 seconds after seeing the associated lightning stroke. the speed of sound waves in air is 343-m/s and the speed of light in air is 3.00 x 10^8-m/s. how far are you from the lightning stroke in both meters and miles? assume that the light reaches you instantaneously.

D = 3.45 mile

Explanation:

given,

time taken by the sound wave, t = 16.2 s

speed of sound, v = 343 m/s

speed of the light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

distance where lightning stroke

 we know,

 distance = speed x time

  D = 343 x 16.2

  D = 5556.6 m

 1 m = 0.000621371 mile

5556.6 m = 5556.6 x 0.0006214

D = 3.45 mile

the distance lightning strike is 3.45 mile away from the observer.

the temperature and the pressure affect solubility. temperature affects by changing the properties of the solvent. the increase in pressure increases solubility, the decrease in pressure decreases solubility.
